Challenge 27# "A Receipe"

Good Morning Everyone well its my second chance as "A" Team Leader at hosting this Challenge Blog so lets hope I dont make the same mistake I did last time, I got the finishing date wrong so sorry about that. Anyway todays Challenge is "A Receipe" and that will involve

3 designers Papers,
2 Images
1 Embellishment
Now Im sure you will find a way of combing two images onto your card and will leave that entirely upto you, some of you know how to use the graphics program to do it, and even if you dont they are lots of links on the internet for you to try it out, but if you dont want to go along that path just cut out your second image and pop it onto your first one. Or at last resort use a image that has two images already on it.
Now before we start Im sure you will want to know who the winner is for last weeks Challenge and
